Try This Before You Call Our Residential Locksmiths in Houston

Because Alamo Key & Lock understands the importance of providing affordable residential locksmith solutions for all our valued customers in Houston. It may be the case that you don’t need to spend any money hiring a residential locksmith in Houston TX. For example:

If you are locked out of your home because your key jams in the lock, or if the issue is any kind of stickiness, or stiffness with the lock device – such as a key stuck in a lock, a bolt that won’t move, or a lever that won’t turn – try a lubricant like WD-40, spray it sparingly and then gently move the key (up / right / down / left)

This basic, yet, effective technique will work for most key jams. Throughout the years our valued customers called us 713-688-3887 and over the phone, we’ve advised this technique to solve basic locksmithing problems, thus, saving $$$ for our valued customers.

Once again, we understand the importance of affordability, and unlike other locksmiths in Houston, we provide honest and helpful solutions.

Another important thing to remember is: Do Not Force any part of the lock. Don’t use a screwdriver to try to un-jam a stuck key, especially on your car! We’ve heard horror stories about other unlicensed locksmiths in TX using screwdrivers or other sharp tools to fix a stuck key. That means, always seek a professional locksmith in Houston for quality outcomes.

Being a full service locksmith company means that we also provide safe services. Whether you need a new gun safe, or gun safes repaired, or opened, we can advice you about “What Type, Where, How” about gun safes.

Testimonials

As a real estate broker I often need a Houston locksmith to get a door of a property open to show a prospective buyer. I have worked with Alamo Key and Lock for a long time. Absentee homeowners often lose keys or tenants change locks to prevent the home form being shown. Alamo Key and Lock will always respond and get the door opened and a new key made. I also use them to change locks on foreclosures and evictions to prevent re-entry by the former occupants. I have been very satisfied with the service over the years.

Charlotte Everson

They were the best and most prompt locksmiths I have experienced.

Lly Gomez

I accidentally locked my car after putting my daughter in the child's seat in the back seat. It was a hot day also and I began to panic. A stranger called Alamo Key and Lock for me along with the police. I was surprised that the Houston Locksmith arrived at almost the same time as the police. The locksmith got the door opened and my daughter was fine. The policeman said if the locksmith did not come right away he would have had no choice but to break the window because seconds count. I owe a big thanks to Alamo Key and Lock for responding to my emergency so quickly.

Catherine Vaughn

Thank you Alamo key &lock and Francisco for opening my car total life savers. Flat rate scam free, I before I called them I called another place that wanted my car make and model, year, color and would give me a rate once they got there. I recommend them took less than minute to open it.

Cindy Marron

I am SO impressed with Ron and his Team (Uve and Francisco) at Alamo Key & Lock! We needed six areas at the hospital secured, and they promptly installed the keypad locks and came up with a great price for us. Thank you! And the technicians were professional, friendly and always smiling. Bravo! We will definitely call on you again

When I was locked out of my car after work I found Alamo Key and Lock on Google and called them. The Houston locksmith showed up in fifteen minutes and opened my door. The price was very reasonable but enough to make me more careful in the future. Very good service.

Marcus Allen

Very nice and professional young man came out. I completely gave up after two tow truck drivers came to try and get my keys out before him, but he was persistent and tried every which way possible. He could've easily said it would be more to make a key, but he tried and tried until he got it open. I am very grateful because not only did I not have to make a key, but he got my keys out really quick. Thank you guys!!!
